A short interview with Zecharia Sitchin focused on his core claim: that the Sumerian planetary system included a twelfth body, Nibiru, on a 3,600-year orbit, and that this is the home of the beings the Sumerians called Anunnaki. Compact summary of the argument made in his Earth Chronicles series.

was our race genetically engineered 6,000 years ago where we created by beings from distant space to work as laborers toward some phenomena from ancient cave paintings to the conquest of space we have grappled with the truths of our beginnings but what if the question of our origin falls outside the realm of social acceptability over the course of the 20th century we have witnessed exponential advancements in the collective knowledge of mankind in every field of science and technology our achievements are no longer measured in centuries or decades but in years and even months with this extraordinary growth mankind has surpassed every achievement recorded throughout the millennia of known civilization but what if the breakthroughs of today concerning humanity the earth and our beginnings are not new wisdom at all what if much of this supposed recent knowledge a secretive way in the ruins of a once powerful Society awaiting our discovery could this alleged new knowledge uncovered in fourths little corner of the universe be considered Genesis revisited this is the belief of the world renowned archeologist linguist and expert in the field of cultural anthropology zecharia sitchin I'm zecharia sitchin I devoted the lifetime to the study of ancient civilizations ancient languages their art their beliefs and the knowledge that they had and the question is when you study when you look at all that is it me is it mythology or did it really happen I believe it all really happened mankind came out of the Dark Ages and the Middle Ages reached the age of enlightenment experience the Industrial Revolution and entered the era of advanced technology the era of genetic engineering and the era of spaceflight a [Music] straw knots who land like Eagles Zecharia Sitchin's research reveals that in our ancient past there were advanced beings referred to as the Anunnaki translated those who from heaven to earth came the idea that there was in our solar system a race of intelligent beings far older than us who are now gone which certainly forced us to rethink lots of questions including the question of human origins where did we come from could we be the products of genetic engineering the hypothesis that modern science is only now catching up with ancient knowledge is inspiring scientists and researchers to increase efforts to rediscover that which may have been lost over time the Kindle situation that is lain dormant almost 5,500 years the incident of the Tower of Babel in the Babylonian version of the biblical story the people of Babylon were building a tower whose head shall reach the heaven in which a Shem the space rocket was to be installed under the direction of their Supreme Court but the other deities were not amused by this foray of mankind into the Space Age the biblical story recalls that yaver came down to see the city and the tower that the humans were building and he said to his colleagues in Genesis chapter 11 this is just the beginning of their undertakings from now on anything that they shall scheme to do shall no longer be impossible for them come let us go down and confuse their language so that they should not understand each other's speech thanks to the science of archaeology experts now know that the first great civilization emerged almost 6,000 years ago older than the Greeks older than the Mayans older than the Incas the people of this society were called Sumerians after their land sumaré in the great plain between the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers today's Iraq the book of Genesis calls the land shaniyah for generations biblical scholars either ignore biblical references to ancient kingdoms or categorize these as legend or lore through the study of historical relics and the translation of ancient languages many biblical researchers now believe that the previously questioned Old Testament references are indeed historically authentic accounts of flourishing advanced cultures if you study the Genesis document you know the God made Adam out of clay and then took Eve out of his rib one of his ribs etc if you study this document you discovered that it's really a much shorter version of a much more complicated document that comes out of Babylonia and that's sumaré and so on now these ancient texts are given a really complicated story of powerful non-human godlike beings actually engineering us making us with for specific purposes Zecharia Sitchin's investigation into these cultures brings him to this 6,000 year old temple in an excavated area of the ancient city eric until its discovery only 150 years ago Eric was known only through passages in the Bible the temple is dedicated to a female goddess named Ananya also referred to in later times as Ishtar zecharia sitchin you can see here her features and the through damaged head divinity was marked by the pair of horns that she had she held a jar with the water of life and she was surrounded as a decoration but perhaps also symbolically with the symbol that some referred to as entwined snakes which was the symbol of science in those days 6000 years some find in it a precursor of the Egyptian and since that time authors like zecharia sitchin have gone to the far ends of the earth looking for clues painstakingly piecing together enough fragmentary evidence to build a new theory of human evolution a basic conclusion of my writings has been that those who gave mankind civilization where visitors to Earth from another planet if I say extraterrestrials it's a it's a dirty word but that's what they were is one of the few people on earth able to read 6,000 year old Sumerian texts these writings according to Sitchin contain unmistakable clues to ancient intergalactic space travel and in order to come and go between them their planet and in our planet they needed a space facility the space facility was in a place in English the potamia and today's Iraq the Mission Control Center was at the place called Nepal and the actual spaceport was in a place called safar which can be translated this Dead City many of them were depicted as bad men with wings people people that look like us not with little horns or green people they look that look like us started to come between their planet and earth about 450,000 years ago why do they look like us we look like them because if you know the Bible which is based on the Sumerian tales at some point they engaged in genetic engineering and mixed their genes with the genes of Homo erectus we can use them there is a scientific terms but let's say with with early hominids to bring about Homo sapiens nice where did all this come from and I think that you need to turn to the ancient Sumerians themselves and listen very carefully to what they have to say because what they have to say not just in one place but over and over and over again is that they were taught civilization by these beings that came from the heavens to the earth they call them the Anunnaki [Music] the Sumerians wrote down their history on clay tablets like these which lay ignored in a Berlin Museum for half a century few people have been able to decipher this ancient language but one of them is zecharia sitchin the writings and the pictorial evidence left behind by the Sumerians going back 6,000 years speak and depict people who came from another planet they called Nibiru and many of the depictions showed them much bigger at least by a third perhaps more than the average human being so when they were giants this Sumerians cylinder seal from a Berlin Museum is astonishing for several reasons first it depicts our solar system with the Sun at the center and the planets arrayed around it a fact not known to European science till around 300 years ago
